Skr red at Elianna and snapped, “You even hurt a baby? Elianna, you are so horrifying.”

Elianna couldn’t care less, deliberately twisting the knife. “Are you angry? Just mentioning your dead bastard kid makes you angry?

“Skr, it’s because of a mother like you that he never even got to see the light of day.”

Skr suddenly grabbed Elianna by the throat and snarled, “That’s enough, Elianna. One more word about him, and I swear I’ll end you.”

Elianna red at Skr, her eyes wild, and burst into crazyughter. When she finally calmed down, she croaked, “Go ahead and touch bme/b. I’ll scatter your kid’s ashes in the wind.”

Skr tightened her grip, cutting off Elianna’s air supply. Elianna gasped desperately, her eyes rolling back until only the whites showed.

Elianna was too weak to resist, her face twisted in agony. Just when she thought Skr would strangle her to death, Skr abruptly released her bgrip/bbi. /i/b

She copsed to the ground like a pile of mud,pletely limp.

She clutched her neck, bruised and purple, gasping for breath and coughing violently.

Skr shot her a look of utter disgust and spat, “Killing you would only dirty my hands.”

Skr lunged forward, grabbed Elianna’s chin as she tried bto /bsquirm away, and yanked her face close. “You’ll pay for what you did to my child. I’ll make you pay back everyst thing you owe me.”

She flung Elianna aside in disgust and wiped her hands as if they were dirty. Then she stood tall and sneered down at Elianna.

Elianna’s eyes burned red with fury, her whole body seething with rage. “You bitch. I’ll never forget what you did to me today. Just byou /bwait.”

She struggled to her feet, hastily smoothing her disheveled appearance before storming out of the police station, her head held high.

After receiving Elianna’s message, Yosef wrapped up his work and headed straight to the set.

Eliannay weakly on the bed, her voice barely a whisper. “Yosef, you’re finally here. Anyter and I’d have been bullied to deathb./b”

Yosef sat on the chair by the bed, frowning slightly, “What happened?b” /b

Elianna sniffled, “Skr must’ve gotten into something up in the mountains that made a wild boar bgo /bcrazy and chase her all the way down. And now she has the nerve to use me of drugging her.“.

Elianna wiped away her tears, her voice trembling. “I don’t know anything about medicine. How could I possibly drug her? I know she has it out for me, but framing me like this is just too much.

“This whole mess has cost me so many followers. Everyone online is tearing into me. I don’t know how much more I can take.”

Yosef didn’t fully buy her story.

Before arriving, Yosef had already seen the viral video circting online.

The video clearly showed Elianna barging into Skr’s thatched hut for no apparent reasonb, /brummaging baround /binside.

Yosef’s eyes narrowed. “Then why were you in their hut?”

Elianna sobbed, “I only went there because wanted to get something back from Skr. I knew she’d never give bit /bbto /bmeb, /bbso /bI had bto /bsneak in. bWho /bbknew /bI’d walk right into them catching the person who hurt them?”

bWith /bher eyes puffy from crying, Elianna whimpered, “Yosefb, /bwhat should I do?”

Yosef frowned, “What’could possibly be worth taking such a huge risk?”

Elianna asked, “Yosef, do you remember that cufflink you gave me when I saved you back then?”

Yosef remembered, of course.

Years ago, he was framed by the eldest branch of his family, suffering serious eye injuries and nearly dying. It was Elianna who saved him band /bnursed bhim /b

back to health.

Back then, blind and helpless, he deliberately detached one cufflink from his favorite pair and gave it to her, so that he could recognize his savior someday.
